Week 4: The plant is responding well to ongoing LST, with multiple side branches developing and the canopy starting to spread evenly across the pot. Feeding remains moderate and stable, supporting healthy green growth without signs of stress. Early pre-flower pistils are visible, but full flowering is still some time away.

Plants dried in the pots for 2days then hang for 2weeks at 60-65%rh. Buds were dense in most cases, they ended up being three totally different phenos but over all the smell was strong and taste was sweet. 8g pop corn and 25g sugar leaves in total.Zkittlez 1 37g total not all is in the pic, the smell was sweet. Zkittlez 2 52gs in total has a very pine like smell. Zkittlez 3 very stanky covered in thc snow white the camera does not do her justice. A huge thanks to @gmslave, @DoDrugs420 and @Mrs_Larimar. @fast_buds you guys are coming up in my next grow!

we continue the run with the slowing down of the stretch and the beginning of the beautiful flowers. This week my EC indicated me some things... It was at 1.8 and went up to 1.9, so I added water to lower the ec to 1.6. When my ec goes back up it tells me that I have enough nutrients in my solution. Now, the ph is back to 1.7, I will add more water to bring it down to 1.5. We can observe on some leaf tips a beginning of over-fattening, this is what I'm talking about above, I'll let you know next week if I lower the ec or if I keep 1.5. I did one last defoliation and it was needed! If you look at my vitals, it's not crazy, 70% humidity at this time of the year can become problematic, so I'm going to take the dehumidifier out and set myself at 55%.

Note : + jegliches Zubehör wird in der GermniationsWoche aufgelistet . Zeitraffer Videos folgen immer nachträglich. + videos werden so geschnitten das nur ein geschlossenes Zelt erscheint , ergo Fehlen paar reale Minuten (ca 1 Std) . + Feuerzeug ist 7.5cm hoch und 1.7cm breit + WEIHNACHTS ZEITRAFFER 2024- SPEZIAL HINZUGEFÜHGT !!! Ich hab keine Ahnung was es wiegt , da ich keine Zugwage hatte. Ich hoffe die Bilder geben ungefähr wieder was es wohl werden wird . Eigentlich hab ich nur gegossen und gedüngt, den Rest hat der Zwerg selber gemacht. Hätte nie gedacht soviel aus dem Zwerg zu bekommen. Update : hochgerechnet waren es 550g nass. Getrocknet : 99g mit Popkorn Buds aber weitgehenst von Stängeln befreit bzw jede knospe einzelnt abgeschnitten, ausser bei den TopBuds .

Week 4, after last week's pruning, the plant has recovered well. I'm using wires to do some LST and create space between the branches.

Major morphological changes being observed still. Stretch & bud thickening occurring. Sept 18 - looking good. Hairy hairy buds! Sept 19 - all watered with nutes 2ml/L all. 1.5L each. Sept 20 - looking great, sticky colas when handling, smelling noticeably when opening the tent now & Lina’s hairs starting to brown off. Subtle purple colours are popping on some cola’s - notably BM & TB. Scrog’d them. Need to find out how to make it square and less bowed in..I’m guessing poles or bungee cord? 21 Sept - doing well. 22 Sept - all watered, 2L each w/ bud burst @ 3ml/L and in total 1/2 cup of molasses for 10L. 23 - all good 24 - looking great!

This week they did more stretching as you can see the one on the left is into and above the light! I can't believe this but I'll role with it! I slowly defoliate just a little here and there between watering and filling the humidifiers. They really like to eat! Also, something to note that is they love the humidity as well as the warmth. I had to clean the outside of their grow bags this week. To my surprise the roots are starting to come out the bag! I can't believe it but this is awesome! Now they'll die due to contact with the air, and in return get bigger to take in even more nutrients! As predicted they fell off because their little pieces are on the floor. Well I fed and watered them daily. Like normal whenever I fed them either nutrients or soil amendments I made sure to water the plants with plain pH balanced H2O the next day in order to flush them. Then I would do any soil amendments if needed. After that plain pH balanced H20 and then you could do another fertilizer nutrient for them. After that pH balanced H20 and then you return to the soil amendments if needed. That way every other day you're feeding soil then pH balanced H20 then nutrients then pH balanced H20. This will allow you to monitor pH imbalances, nutrient burn, or any subtle changes you need to make you can catch it before it happens hopefully!

Have had some challenges this week. In my lack of experience, I have struggle to discern whether my plant is deficient in nutrients, suffering lockout or approaching harvest. Symptoms were yellowing leaves... The cause of which can be, of course, many different things. I decided to flush last week, thinking that a nutrient lockout was most likely. Leaves less yellow this week so think it may have done the trick. I have spent some time researching and considering flushing as a technique to improve final bud quality. I have decided that there simply isn't enough evidence to deny my girl of nutrients at a critical phase of her growth. I am therefore continuing a reduced feeding schedule of - 1mls topmax - 2mls BioBloom - 1 scoop biosys ecothrive - 2.5mls Cannazym. And, unless indicated otherwise, will continue with this schedule up until harvest. Today I have tested PPM of the run off and measure it to be approx 1050ppm. I will measure again in 24 hours to monitor change after a feed. Purchased a 60x microscope and am able to see that 90% of trichomes are still clear. I am therefore anticipating at least another couple of weeks before harvest. Buds look fluffier than I'd like, but resin and trichome production haven't disappointed. I'm hoping that over the next few weeks the buds will continue to fatten. 19/11/2021 - Day 79. Have a few days off so have managed to catch some photos in day light. Have also uploaded a video. Feel that she isn't particularly happy... But on the other hand, she is showing the resistance and ability to adapt to less than ideal growing conditions; as promised by the strain genetics. Plenty of trichs, plenty of resin, plenty of buds. Just need them to fatten and fill out for maximum yield and quality. 23/11/21 - Day 83 - Still some deficiencies but she doesn't seem to be using much water so reluctant to feed at risk of overwatering. Noticing lots of new pistil formation. Looking frosty, but all trichomes still clear. Temperatures dropping to around 2°c overnight here. Managing to maintain temperatures around 10°c in the shed. Appreciate that this is too cold for growth but she seems to be coping with it well. I think that a gradual reduction in temperature has been tolerated better than fluctuant or sudden drops would be. Fingers crossed that her hardy nature keeps her strong. Fed today: 1mls BioBloom 2mls Topmax Half scoop Biosys Ecothrive Filtered water - pH 6.5, TDS 320 Run off 953 TDS 29/11/21 - Day 90 - no sign of any amber yet. Still mostly clear with a splattering of cloudy. Really worrying about the night time temps now and holding out hope that it doesn't die off before the trichomes mature.

💜 Purple Haze by Zamnesia – Pheno A Week 7 | A Lush Beauty Finding Her Rhythm Welcome back to another chapter of the 8×8 Adventure! Week after week, this room continues proving why phenotype hunting is one of the most fascinating parts of growing from seed. Every plant shares the exact same environment. The same lighting. The same nutrients. The same irrigation. The same care. Yet every diary tells a completely different story. Purple Haze Pheno A continues writing hers with elegance. She isn't the tallest plant in the room. She isn't the smallest either. Instead, she's quietly becoming one of the healthiest and most balanced ladies in the tent, and every time I unzip the door she's one of the first plants my eyes are drawn toward. 🌱 One Room. One Method. Twelve Different Personalities If this is your first visit to the diary, welcome! This entire project is built around the 12/12 From Seed growing technique. Rather than giving plants a long vegetative period before flowering, every seed was placed directly under a 12/12 light schedule from the very beginning. It's a technique that naturally keeps plants more compact while allowing them to reveal their genetic personality surprisingly early. Every phenotype in this room receives exactly the same opportunity. • The same Plagron nutrition • The same lighting from the Future of Grow Black Series LED • The same environmental control through TrolMaster • The same AutoPot irrigation • The same soil • The same temperatures • The same humidity There are no favourites. No special treatment. No individual feeding. The only thing that changes... ...is genetics. Purple Haze Pheno A is beginning to show exactly what hers have in store. 🌿 A Plant You Can't Help But Admire Some plants impress you with explosive growth. Others with incredible colours. Purple Haze Pheno A immediately catches my attention for another reason. She's simply beautiful. Her foliage is exactly what every grower hopes to see. Large fan leaves. Deep, healthy green. Excellent turgor. Strong petioles. Every leaf looks like it's working exactly as nature intended. Healthy leaves are far more than decoration. They're the plant's solar panels, capturing light energy and converting it into the carbohydrates that fuel root growth, flower development and eventually resin production. When foliage looks this healthy, it's usually a reflection of everything happening beneath the surface. Healthy roots. Balanced nutrition. Stable environmental conditions. She truly looks comfortable in her home. 🌸 Flowers Are Beginning to Tell the Story Week 7 is where flowering really starts becoming exciting. Every branch now carries clusters of bright white pistils emerging from small groups of swollen calyxes. Those little white hairs are the pistils—the female reproductive organs of the flower. In nature, their purpose is to catch airborne pollen. Inside a grow tent they simply become one of the best visual indicators that flowering is progressing exactly as it should. The calyxes surrounding those pistils are equally important. Each one is the tiny building block that eventually forms the finished buds we harvest. Right now they're still small. But over the coming weeks they'll begin stacking together, swelling and filling with resin until individual flowers merge into the long, beautiful colas Purple Haze genetics are famous for producing. Judging by how evenly the flowering sites are developing, she's laying an excellent foundation for the weeks ahead. 🍃 Letting the Plant Do the Work One thing I've continued to avoid is unnecessary defoliation. Throughout the early flowering period I've relied mostly on careful leaf tucking, allowing light to reach developing bud sites without removing perfectly healthy fan leaves. Every healthy leaf is producing energy. Removing them simply because they're large isn't always the best solution. Sometimes the best training is simply understanding when not to intervene. Purple Haze has responded beautifully to that approach. Her canopy remains open. Airflow is excellent. The branches have plenty of space. Nature has done most of the hard work for me. 💡 Lumiflora Under-Canopy Lighting One exciting addition to this grow is the use of Lumiflora under-canopy lighting. Traditional grow lights do an incredible job illuminating the tops of the plants, but lower flowering sites naturally receive much less usable light as the canopy becomes denser. Under-canopy lighting helps change that. By gently illuminating the lower sections of the plant, these fixtures help those secondary flowers receive additional energy without forcing aggressive defoliation. They're not a magic solution. They won't suddenly transform small buds into giant colas overnight. What they do offer is another opportunity for lower flowering sites to remain productive while helping create a more evenly developed plant from top to bottom. I'm genuinely excited to watch how they influence the remainder of this project. 💧 Feeding This Week As flowering progresses, nutrition continues supporting the increasing demand for flower production. This week's feeding schedule includes: • Terra Bloom – 2 ml/L • Power Buds – 1 ml/L • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L • Pure Zym – 1 ml/L • Careful pH adjustment using pH Plus and Lemon Kick Everything remains balanced and consistent across the entire room, allowing each phenotype to express itself naturally. 🌡️ A Stable Environment Builds Strong Plants Consistency continues to be one of the biggest successes of this project. Current environmental conditions remain remarkably stable: • Flower Week 7 • Height: 120 cm • Day temperature: 29°C • Night temperature: 25°C • Relative humidity: 60% • pH: 5.8 • EC: 1.95 mS/cm • Solution temperature: 22°C • Root zone temperature: 21°C • CO₂: 639 ppm When plants don't need to constantly adapt to environmental swings, they can dedicate their energy to what matters most—building flowers. 📷 This Week's Gallery This week's photographs showcase exactly why I'm enjoying this phenotype so much. The close-up shots reveal healthy clusters of fresh white pistils emerging from every flowering site, while the wider images highlight her beautifully balanced architecture and outstanding foliage. One of my favourite details is the colour. The rich green leaves frame the developing flowers perfectly, giving the entire plant an incredibly healthy appearance. She isn't trying to steal the spotlight. She's simply growing with confidence. And sometimes that's even more impressive. 🔮 Looking Ahead Over the next week I expect the stretch to begin slowing noticeably. More energy should shift toward flower production as the calyxes continue stacking and the buds gradually start gaining volume. I'm also very curious to observe the ongoing influence of the Lumiflora under-canopy lighting as the canopy becomes denser. What I don't expect is explosive overnight change. Purple Haze doesn't feel like that kind of plant. She seems determined to improve steadily, week after week, building quality before quantity. If she continues along this path, I have a feeling she'll become one of the most rewarding plants to harvest—not because she grows the fastest, but because she grows with remarkable consistency. 💚 Thank You Thank you so much for following another chapter of this 8×8 Adventure. Every week reinforces why documenting each individual phenotype has become one of the most rewarding parts of this journey. Watching twelve unique plants express themselves under identical conditions continues to teach me something new every single week. A huge thank you to: 💚 GrowDiaries for providing a platform where growers from around the world can learn, share knowledge, and inspire one another. 🌱 Zamnesia for providing the outstanding Purple Haze genetics that make this phenotype hunt possible. 💜 Plagron for supplying the nutrition supporting every stage of this grow. 💡 Future of Grow LED for delivering the light driving this entire project. 🌿 TrolMaster for helping maintain a stable environment where every phenotype can perform at its best. ✨ Lumiflora for bringing an exciting new dimension to this grow with their under-canopy lighting, and giving these lower flowering sites every opportunity to shine. And finally... Thank you to everyone following these diaries, leaving comments, asking questions, and sharing this journey with me. Every week Purple Haze Pheno A becomes a little more impressive. Not because she's trying to stand out... But because she's quietly showing what healthy, well-balanced genetics are capable of. Growers Love! 💜🌿

Beginning of week 8 and seems like a long way to go. Most of the hairs still white. Hopefully the buds will fill in more! As right now I’m planning to take it 10+ weeks. This week I will lower the CO2 slowly 50 PPM every day until I will reach 800PPM. Also I will lower the light intensity by 2% every day. This week I lowered the day temp to 79 degrees and next week I’m playing to lower it every further to 76 degrees Fahrenheit. Water temp is at 68 degrees and probably from week 9 I will lower it to 66. Beginning of week 8 TDS is at 550PPM. I sent adding the Late bloom enhancer from Current Culture! End of week 8 : lowered the TDS to 470ppm , she seems that it not eating so much nutrients anymore. She still drinking 3 gallons of water every single day.
